    학위논문(석사) -- 서울대학교대학원 : 국제농업기술대학원 국제농업기술학과, 2021.8. Doman Kim.수수 (Sorghum bicolor)는 슈퍼 작물 중 하나이며, 다섯 번째로 영양가가 높은 주요 곡물이다. 수수는 페놀산, 플라보노이드 및 축합 탄닌이 주성분이며, 다양한 페놀 화합물 함량이 높은 글루텐 프리 곡물이다. 본 연구의 목적은 발효를 통해 L-carnitine과 수수의 다른 기능성 성분을 증가시키기 위함이다. 발효 샘플을 이용하여 SEM과 같은 형태학적 연구, LC/MS (L-carnitine, citrinin and phenolic compounds)와 같은 분석 연구, TPC, TFC, TTC, DPPH, FRAP 및 ORAC와 같은 생화학적 연구를 수행하였다. 미발효 수수의 매끈한 표면이 Monascus purpureus K/M에 의한 발효 과정 이후 수수 외부 표면의 분해가 관찰되었다. L-carnitine 양은 M. purpureus K/M에 의한 14일 발효 후 0.42±0.05 mg/kg에서 120.6±0.7 mg/kg으로 증가하였다. 총 페놀 및 총 플라보노이드 함량은 발효 과정 동안 증가하였다. 반면, 총 탄닌 함량은 발효일이 증가함에 따라 290%로 감소하였다. DPPH, FRAP 및 ORAC 분석에서는 발효되지 않은 수수에 비해 항산화 활성이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 발효 후 갈산과 바닐산이 생성되었다. α-glucosidase와 버섯 tyrosinase의 저해 활성도 발효 5일 후 199.6%, 141.4% 증가하였다. M. purpureus K/M에 의한 발효 후 수수의 L-carnitine 함량은 287배 증가하였다. 발효수수의 세포독성은 비발효수수에 비해 감소하였다. 대식세포에 대한 NO 생성 억제율은 각각 76.9%, 74.6% 및 77.6%로 각각 비발효, 5일 및 7일 발효 수수에서 관찰되었다. 따라서 본 연구를 바탕으로, 발효한 수수는 식품, 제약, 화장품 산업에서 기능성 소재로 응용 가능할 것이라 기대된다.Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) is one of the super crops and the fifth most important cereal with high nutrient value. It is gluten free cereal with high content of various phenolic compounds among which phenolic acids, flavonoids and condensed tannins are main compounds. The goal of this study is to increase the L-carnitine concentration as well as other functional components of sorghum by fermentation. Fermented samples were prepared for morphological study like SEM, analytical study like LC/MS (L-carnitine, citrinin and phenolic compounds), biochemical study like TPC, TFC, TTC, DPPH, FRAP and ORAC. Degradation on the outer surface of sorghum observed after fermentation by Monascus purpureus K/M where non-fermented sorghum have smooth surface. L-carnitine amount was increased from 0.42±0.05 mg/kg to 120.6±0.7 mg/kg after 14 days fermentation by M. purpureus K/M. The total phenolic and total flavonoids contents were increased during fermentation. On the other hand, total tannin contents were decreased to 290% as the fermentation day increased. DPPH, FRAP and ORAC assays showed the increase of antioxidant activities compared to non-fermented sorghum. Gallic acid and vanillic acid were appeared after fermentation. The inhibitory activity of α- glucosidase and mushroom tyrosinase also increase 199.6% and 141.4% after 5 days fermentation. After fermentation by M. purpureus K/M, the l-carnitine content in sorghum increased 287 times. The cell toxicity of fermented sorghum was decreased compare to non-fermented sorghum. 76.9%, 74.6% and 77.6% inhibition of NO production on macrophage cells were observed in non-fermented, 5 days and 7 days fermented sorghum, respectively Based on these findings, fermented sorghum has potential application as functional materials in nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and cosmeceutical industries.Research background 1 1.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    No full text
    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
